Does anyone have any information about this man and his family? I am still hitting a brick wall on the parentage of my ggg-grandfather John FITZPATRICK who is mentioned on page 9 as being the first Catholic to settle in Port Elgin in 1850. Any suggestions on how to track down information on this James Fitzpatrick to try and see if there is a connection? I haven't had any luck with him. Thanks for any help.
